New Providence Heritage Festival

So, I went to Community Breakfast this morning...delightful as always!  I got the scoop on the upcoming New Provdence Heritage Festival, so, here it is!  Wondering what is going on?  Bookmark this post to refer to when you want to know whether to slave away in your hot kitchen or to enjoy good food and fellowship with your neighbors (is there really a choice here?!).  :)
